I believe you are called out. :)

- A batter may not step out of the square in
a forward or backward direction when hitting or
attempting to hit the ball. If they do the Umpire
declares them out. They may step out of the
side of the square in order to hit a ball. (Careful
observation by the Umpire of the exact timing of
the hit and the position of the batter's feet at the
moment of impact is necessary here)
